Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a California Anglewing sighting in San Francisco on a given day, based on 12 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 443rd most-seen of the 737 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, if each day is a fresh chance.
Any time of year
In every month with enough records, under 5% of wildlife watchers report a California Anglewing in San Francisco on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Between 6 and 9 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most California Anglewing sightings with a recorded time, and about 6 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is seen both by day and at night.
Among the best

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the California Anglewing is recorded against all the insects logged in San Francisco (12 verified sightings), calibrated against known sighting rates. Figures are rounded to the nearest 10% because citizen-science data supports honest approximations, not decimals, and months with records from fewer than five people show "—". How it works.
